Pros:

- Reduces spot size
- Lightens scars
- Smells nice

Cons:

- Made my skin a bit dry
- Can take a while to work
- Stopped working after a few months

Applying this stuff, will make you look super pale, so I suggest wearing it indoors, unless you like the Casper look :P But anyway, I used this product for a few months and for a while I did see improvements. Redness was starting to get lighter and dabbing a blob of Sudocrem on a spot with a bit of toothpaste would reduce the size of it if left over night. However, it did leave my skin a bit dry and flaky and I found after a few months it didn't really work anymore. I think Sudocrem is best suited for those who have very light to moderate acne.

Pros:

Helps to reduce redness of spots, dries them out quicker and is a good cheap alternative to most spot creams.

Cons:

Doesn't cure spots and has no effect on black heads.

It's probably best to wear it during the night although if you rub it in enough you can wear it during the day (done it plenty of times) My skin is quite greasy but has actually made it less greasy and softer. Reduced size and redness of spots in less than a week. I'm from the U.K so I didn't buy it in dollars...so I'll just put $2...

Cheap

Cons:

None

I ordered this product based on the reviews that I got from this site. I have moderate acne around my chin area, but this product did absolutely nothing for my skin. I am African American so I am not sure if this makes a difference or not, but the product did nothing to my skin other than leaving a pasty white glow to my skin.

Worked for a while
This really controlled my breakouts for about 3 weeks but then all of a sudden I really broke out. I'm not sure why, maybe my body built immunity towards it? Either way, I think it's worth giving a try since it did help initially and my skin was flawless for a few weeks.

Did you continue to use the product? As your breakout may have been from something else? Or did you just stop using it completely

Works well for me!

Pros:

Cheap
Gentle
Reduces breakouts over time

Cons:

Leaves white marks on pillows

I've suffered with moderate acne on my face and chest for the past 15 years. Although the severity has lessened over time, I've only really got it under control in the past 6 months with sudocrem and a super gentle consistent routine. I cleanse with cetaphil and warm water at night, then apply a thin layer of sudocrem before bed. As others have said it will leave white marks on your pillow so I have white pillowcases :) Sudocrem is no miracle product (if there even is such a thing) but my skin has improved a lot since I started this routine 6 months ago. Breakouts have reduced to a couple of angry spots here and there and some very small whiteheads which is the best I can remember. It might not be for everyone and for me it took a while to see any difference but it certainly works for me. Worth a try!

Pros:

Makes your complexion looking flawless! smoothes out any imprefections such as pimples or spots that have already come up they appear smaller or could go straight away. Apply it before you go to sleep because thats when your skin repairs its self and its natual oils you'll see a difference by the morning

Cons:

no cons apsolutley love it!!

Its worth buying so buy it ive tried every spot product going and nothing seems to work it gets rid of all the above ^ and even on severe acne so its really good and good for the price!

Pros:

most people have it, so you can find it anywhere!
its cheap, and at the moment its calmed down my acne, it also helps with scars from previous spots and stuff!

Cons:

it is kinda greasy although i haven't yet had any marks on ma pillows, it does take a while to work and you can't wear it out because it makes you rather white:L

its at the moment the best thing ive tried and ive had prescriptive stuff before and even that wasn't as good at this, it does moisturize your skin too so don't put any moisturizer on before using sudocream, definitely recommend :)

Great once you have healing or newly popped pimples, just put a chunk on at night for a few days and gone!

Cheap

Cons:

Not great for underskin bumps or unpopped pimples
White stuff on your pillows/clothes

Really good stuff, for the most part
This cream is great at reducing redness, and is provided in ample quantity. Results come quickly, but in my own experience, I've found it to be limited. It caused no irritation whatsoever and has only a very subtle scent. There are some drawbacks to consider. For one, you'll most likely find that this is the densest viscosity possible for a topical cream, the consistency is very much like clay. Also, it's highly resistant to rinsing, so be careful with how much you apply. A thin layer is all you need. It takes a little while to be absorbed by the skin, which makes it a worthwhile strategy to use this in the evening and leave it on overnight. Depending how much of this you use and how evenly you distribute it, there may still be some noticeable excess in the morning, though, and as mentioned, rinsing this stuff isn't easy.
